FAQ
Is this the same as sparkling water?
No. This product is non-carbonated, meaning it is still and flat, unlike sparkling or seltzer water which contains dissolved carbon dioxide gas for fizz.
Why does it have calories if it's sweetened with a low-calorie sweetener?
The 1 kcal per 100g likely comes from trace amounts of carbohydrates (0.13g) from the flavoring agents or the sweetener itself, which is not metabolized as sugar.
Is this considered a 'diet' drink?
It is often marketed in the diet or light beverage category because it uses low-calorie sweeteners to provide flavor without the sugar and calories found in traditional fruit drinks or sodas.
